Conducted by Emerson College Polling, the survey saw Harris come away with 20 percent of the vote for "best pick for Vice President" out of the named potential candidates. However, 23 percent went to another possibility: "someone else."

After Harris, who bowed out of the Democratic presidential race not long ago, it was entrepreneur Andrew Yang, who only recently gave up his presidential bid, who came in second at a close 18 percent in the poll, which saw 573 people Democratic primary voters surveyed between February 16 and 18.

Former Secretary of State and 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, meanwhile, came up as a third possibility, with 16 percent of support. Stacey Abrams was selected by 8 percent of participants, while former Rep. Beto O'Rouke received 6 percent of support, Ohio Sen. Sherrod Brown 5 percent and Andrew Gillum 3 percent. Rep Ilhan Omar was the top choice among 1 percent of respondents.

Support for Harris as a potential candidate for vice president comes in the wake of a late January report from The New York Times that the California senator was considering throwing her weight behind former Vice President Joe Biden.
